HI Guys,
Just thought I'll post a few pics of my KG with 17x4.5 and 17x8 Schmidt TH line wheels. These are German company which is really known in Europe. I believe these are the only set on an Aircooled car as they don't make skinny wheels for VW old stud pattern for their wheels. I had to get them rebuilt to 4.5 inch at the front. Anyway enjoy. Cheers
Pat

I like the color of your car, but then-again, I'm biased.

Haha thanks guys. Well the pcd is 5x100 so I had my 5x130 disk redrill to accomodate this new stud pattern. Because of the major difference in pattern it fitting well inside the 5x130 holes |

Hi, Nice job on your car! I was curious to what size tire you are running on your 17x4.5 inch front wheels. I'm putting a set of fuchs replica 17x4.5 on the front of my 70 ghia and found out there is not a lot of tires to choose from. Thanks |

He hasn't visited the site for 3 and a half years and tge post is 9 years old so I wouldn't wait for an answer. You're going to have to do some measuring to see that'll fit in your car. |
